"Tiandu, according to my decree, during the Qianlong Trial, more people will be sent to lurk near Jiang Hanhou to protect Jiang Hanhou's mansion. You personally go out and protect Jiang Chen's safety secretly, and do not let any threats get close to Jiang Chen.
"
"Accept the decree."
Dongfang Lu never imagined that this young man from the Jiang family, who had once made him very annoyed, would now allow him, the king of the country, to use the strongest force to protect him.
"Jiang Chen... what kind of person are you?" Dongfang Lu fell into deep thought for a moment.
At this moment, all aspects of the royal capital also reacted violently.
Medicine Master Palace was naturally extremely happy. After all, the more powerful Jiang Chen showed, the more solid their cooperation with Jiang Chen would be and the brighter their future would be.
The happiest person is none other than Jiang Hanhou Jiang Feng. During this period of time, he stayed in the royal capital and was under great pressure.
The harassment from Long Tenghou, although not too blatant due to the interference of the royal family, still made Jiang Feng feel a lot of pressure.
This time, Jiang Chen defeated Long Yinye and Long Juxue in the Qianlong Conference. Even if it was just a small detail, Jiang Feng was very happy.
"Chen'er, you did a great job!" Jiang Feng was originally not very optimistic about Jiang Chen's second mission. Especially when he returned to Jiang Han to lead the group, Jiang Feng felt unsure.
He knew very well that with Jiang Feng in Jiang Han's territory, it was a monolith and no one could cause trouble. But when Jiang Chen returned, it was unknown whether the tribal chiefs and elders in the clan would listen to Jiang Chen's arrangements.
However, it turned out that his worries were unnecessary.
Not only did Jiang Chen successfully control the situation, he also successfully eliminated Jing Man, a serious enemy of his. Either he didn't take action, or he simply acted swiftly.
Jiang Feng had to admit that his son's courage and skills were much stronger than when he was young.
Jiang Feng was very happy to be surpassed by his son.
Jiang Feng discovered that since his son's encounter at the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, his whole person had changed completely.
…
The Qianlong Trial is in full swing.
The time for the third task has finally arrived. This task is jointly participated by all the descendants of the princes who participated in the assessment.
Mission Three: Trial in the Endless Cave.
The Endless Cave is a magical underground world in the northeastern part of the Eastern Kingdom.
From the history of the Eastern Kingdom, this endless cave has never been completely excavated.
Even the most outstanding strong man in the Eastern Kingdom has never explored the entire endless cave to the end.
No one knows whether this endless cave has an end.
No one knows where this endless cave ends.
This is an underground world, a paradise for underground creatures to survive.
The paradise for underground creatures may be a hell for those who try it, never to return.
Jiang Chen challenged a first-level mission, so the difficulty of the mission was also at the highest level.
"Collect one hundred green spirit beads, or ten silver spirit beads, or one gold spirit bead!" Jiang Chen looked at the task requirements and his mind was confused.
Fortunately, under this quest scroll, there is an introduction to the endless crypt.
In the endless caves, there are various underground creatures, among which there is a green-winged swordbird with a green glowing spiritual bead on its head.
Because the Endless Catacombs is an underground world, dark and humid, with poor visibility, the blue spirit bead on the head of the blue-winged swordbird will give it a great advantage.
The silver spirit bead is a variant of the blue-winged swordbird, the spiritual bead on the head of the silver-winged swordbird. This silver-winged swordbird is the advanced form of the blue-winged swordbird, and it is one of the best in a hundred.
The Golden Lingzhu is the second advanced level of the Blue-winged Swordbird, and it is the king of the Blue-winged Swordbird. Any one of them has a power comparable to that of a Zhenqi master.
Through the information in this endless cave, Jiang Chen roughly understood what was going on.
However, this information also mentioned that in the endless caves, there are countless types of underground creatures, and the green-winged sword bird is just one of the more common spiritual beasts.
"All descendants of the princes who participated in the Qianlong Trial, please listen. Tomorrow morning, we will gather here. Head to the location of the Endless Cave. Three days later, the third mission will officially begin."
Princess Magatama raised her voice and said: "Remember the amount of your respective tasks, as well as the one-month deadline. If it exceeds one month, the task will be considered a failure; if you collect these task amounts early, you can also come out early. For this task,
Life and death are determined by destiny. If you are timid and fearful, you can apply to give up."
The Qianlong Trial is about the orders of the princes, and it is impossible for anyone to give up.
In the world of martial arts, the issue of life and death can never be avoided. Only by experiencing the test of life and death can we grow step by step.
"Okay, I have already said what needs to be said. We will go back to our homes tonight and gather here tomorrow. Remember the time of gathering. We will not wait until the deadline!"
Returning to the Hou Mansion, Jiang Chen locked himself in a secret training room.
This mission was relatively complex. He had to make some arrangements.
Now, Jiang Chen has reached the peak of the Eight Meridians True Qi, and he may be able to break through to the Nine Meridians True Qi as quickly as three to five days, or as slowly as ten days and a half.
The second style of "Canghai Countercurrent Sword" - Breaking Waves, is also becoming more sophisticated and full of charm. When used, the combat effectiveness is astonishing.
The training progress of "Kurong Divine Fist" is slightly faster than that of "Canghai Countercurrent Sword", and I have already mastered the four levels of reincarnation mysteries of four withering and four glory.
Jiang Chen also mastered the basic movements of "Moon-Shattering Flying Knife" very skillfully.
As for the four supporting magical powers, Jiang Chen's cultivation has also made slight progress, but it is still far behind the mysterious attack of the "Moon-Shattering Flying Knife".
The so-called mysterious attack is the real ultimate move.
"Tianmu Divine Pupil" is the fastest and most outstanding magical power that Jiang Chen can practice. He has now reached the fifth level.
"Ears of the Wind" and "Tianmu Divine Eyes" are at the same level, and Jiang Chen has also reached the fifth level.
"Heart of Rock", after one month of practice under Jiang Han, he finally broke through the second level and successfully entered the third level.
"Seven Apertures Channeling Spirits", it was impossible for Jiang Chen to master it before entering the spiritual realm.
Jiang Chen took stock of the various martial arts and martial arts, and was confident that even if he met a Zhenqi master, he would be able to fight head-on.
And among all the descendants of the princes, is there really a true Qi master?
Jiang Chen did not dare to be optimistic, but he was not overly pessimistic. Even if Long Yinye and Long Juxue entered the ranks of Qi masters, Jiang Chen could still deal with them on his own.
"After the third mission is completed, it will be the princes ranking competition. Whether it is Long Yinye or Long Juxue. As the descendants of Long Tenghou, they must have many trump cards. If I don't improve my cultivation as much as possible, I will not be able to compete in the ranking competition.
How to fight them?"
Jiang Chen discovered that even though his cultivation level could be described as rapid since his reincarnation, the gap that had opened up before still made it difficult for him to catch up.
"There is still one month left, everything is possible. The Endless Cave, this is the first real trial in my life. Maybe in a real battle, my potential will be further stimulated?"
Jiang Chen was in high spirits and making full preparations.
In addition to the advantages of martial arts and martial arts, Jiang Chen also took stock of his equipment.
The heavy-feathered flying knife presented by Princess Magatama and the soft armor of the Celestial Silkworm Giant Whale are must-carry.
There is also the nameless sword that Du Ruhui got from ransacking his house. Now it is Jiang Chen's personal weapon. Naturally, it cannot be left behind at all times.
In addition, even if he uses poison, Jiang Chen will not give up. This is also one of Jiang Chen's advantages before he reaches great success in martial arts.
Some of the poisons he concocted can save lives at critical moments.
After inventorying the equipment, Jiang Chen sat cross-legged and started the "Nine Smiles on the Sea" again, polishing his meridians and cultivating his true energy.
At the peak of the Eight Meridians True Qi, Jiang Chen kept trying and attacking, looking for the inspiration to break through.
In martial arts training, breakthrough is not as simple as eating and sleeping. Even if you have extraordinary talent, you still need understanding and an opportunity before you can achieve breakthrough.
Breakthroughs will never come to you out of nowhere.
In the first half of the night, I practiced my Qi, and in the second half of the night, I closed my eyes and meditated. Soon, the whole night passed like this.
Early the next morning, Jiang Chen walked out of the secret room, said goodbye to his father, and arranged all his personal guards in the Hou Mansion.
However, in this third mission, personal guards cannot be brought along.
Arriving at the gathering place, under the escort of the royal army, the team set off towards the northeast of the kingdom, where the endless crypt is located!
…
In the Longtenghou Mansion.
"Reporting to Longhou, my subordinates have secretly negotiated with the Life-Chasing Secret Door. They will send four Qi masters, and we will pay double the price."
"Four Qi masters? Okay!" Long Zhaofeng smiled and nodded, "The secret door to pursue life is not the killer organization of our Eastern Kingdom. Even if Dongfang Lu wants to investigate afterwards, he will not be able to trace us."
"Hey, the Marquis is wise."
"Long Yi, I'm sorry for this. Long San is your brother, and you should have avenged this revenge. You can't be allowed to avenge yourself, so don't have any ideas."
"Everything is for the great cause of the Marquis." Long Yi, who was thin and had a face like a knife, was extremely humble in front of Long Zhaofeng.
"I promise you, in the future I have decided on a big deal. The whole Jiang family will be left to your brothers to deal with. One Jiang Chen is missing, but the whole Jiang family cannot escape."
"Jiang Family!" Long's eyes shot out with cold murderous intent.
"By the way, Long Yi. Have you picked out all the places? This time, we have to do it so tightly that people will guess that it is us, and there is no evidence."
"Everything has been picked, and four less outstanding princes' descendants have been selected. Moreover, the secret door to pursue life must be neat and tidy when doing things, and there will be no flaws. The result afterwards is that these four princes' descendants failed the test.
He was just eaten by a ferocious beast."
Long Yi's voice was cold, as if other people's lives were worse than ants in his eyes.
Long Zhaofeng laughed loudly: "Jiang Chen, this time, I want to see if you can escape this dragnet. Dongfang Lu, you point to the Jiang family as your pawn. It seems that you don't have many cards to play."
